Americans have stopped hosting guests at home
Original: Everybody’s home. No one’s coming over
A new essay by Derek Thompson argues that hosting friends at home is dying out in the United States. People are home more than ever, yet social visits have fallen sharply, with Americans spending far less time entertaining friends than in previous decades. The piece attributes the shift to loneliness, screen time, cost pressures and the decline of so-called 'third places', and readers are debating whether the collapse of at-home hospitality reflects a broader retreat from community life.
Why now: Ongoing concern about declining social connection and loneliness in America, reignited by a widely shared essay.
